Specificity Information
Specificity This antibody recognizes an epitope at the C-terminus of human DC-SIGN, a dendritic cell receptor that can capture and transport HIV from mucosal areas to remote lymph nodes where HIV is then transferred to CD4 T lymphocytes. Multiple strains of HIV-1, HIV-2, and SIV bind to dendritic cells via DC-SIGN. DC-SIGN is expressed in mucosal tissues, placenta, small intestine, and rectum.

Biological Function Pathogen-rPubMed:11859097}.; On DCs it is a high affinity receptor for ICAM2 and ICAM3 by binding to mannose-like carbohydrates. May act as a DC rolling receptor that mediates transendothelial migration of DC presursors from blood to tissues by binding endothelial ICAM2. Seems to regulate DC-induced T-cell proliferation by binding to ICAM3 on T-cells in the immunological synapse formed between DC and T-cells. {PubMed:10721995, PubMed:11017109, PubMed:12574325}.; (Microbial infection) Acts as an attachment receptor for HIV-1 and HIV-2. {PubMed:11799126, PubMed:12502850, PubMed:1518869}.; (Microbial infection) Acts as an attachment receptor for Ebolavirus. {PubMed:12502850, PubMed:12504546}.; (Microbial infection) Acts as an attachment receptor for Cytomegalovirus. {PubMed:12433371, PubMed:22496863}.; (Microbial infection) Acts as an attachment receptor for HCV. {PubMed:15371595, PubMed:16816373}.; (Microbial infection) Acts as an attachment receptor for Dengue virus. {PubMed:12682107}.; (Microbial infection) Acts as an attachment receptor for Measles virus. {PubMed:16537615}.; (Microbial infection) Acts as an attachment receptor for Herpes simplex virus 1. {PubMed:18796707}.; (Microbial infection) Acts as an attachment receptor for Influenzavirus A. {PubMed:21191006}.; (Microbial infection) Acts as an attachment receptor for SARS-CoV. {PubMed:15140961}.; (Microbial infection) Acts as an attachment receptor for Japanese encephalitis virus. {PubMed:24623090}.; (Microbial infection) Acts as an attachment receptor for Lassa virus (PubMed:23966408).
